The pose of this work's central figure is derived from a fresco depicting a son of Poseidon standing on a stump by some cliffs, Annibale Caracci's Polyphemus. That central figure stands with his right foot planted firmly in front of him, and seems to bite his lip. Both the sculptor's biographer Baldinucci and the sculptor's son Domenico claim that they were the models for this work, which was created for Cardinal Scipione Borghese and still lies in the Galleria Borghese. This work departs from textual tradition by showing a harp at the title figure's feet, and during its composition, Maffeo Barberini, who later patronized this work's creator after becoming Pope Urban

This work departs from textual tradition by showing a harp at the title figure's feet, and during its composition, Maffeo Barberini, who later patronized this work's creator after becoming Pope Urban VIII, would hold a mirror up for this work's artist so he could model it after himself. For 10 points, name this work in which the central figure's muscles are tensing as he prepares to attack a giant opponent, a work of Gianlorenzo Bernini.
